Comfortable stay with excellent food
great breakfasthot waterreasonable price
The breakfast was excellent and offered several choices. The evening meal in the bar was great and reasonably priced both nights. I found plenty of hot water in the bathroom for a long soak, a shower was also available.
The wifi signal was very bad, maybe because they turned off the router.

Restful Stay
clean roomcomfortable bedconvenient restaurantcold room
I stayed for one night while passing through. The room had sufficient space and a clean environment. The bathroom also met cleanliness standards. The bed offered comfort, and breakfast was adequate, not extraordinary, yet still satisfying. The restaurant provided convenient dining, saving the need to search for alternative options.
the room felt cold despite the heating system being active. It seems replacing the summer sheets with warmer, fleecy alternatives could significantly improve comfort during the colder months. I think this upgrade would greatly enhance the experience.
